David Beckham Bending It on Italian Big Brother?

Posted by Karl Erikson at 7:45 AM on December 23, 2008

David Beckham, soccer star extraordinnaire, is going to spend 10 weeks in Italy on loan to the AC Milan soccer club. And now it seems David will be appearing in Italy on the big reality show "Big Brother," a worldwide franchise.

"Beckham is very high profile," says a source, "and to get him on Big Brother would be a ratings winner. All the high profile players are on light entertainment shows during the season."

The AC Milan soccer club is owned by Italian Prime Minister and media mogul Silvio Berlusconi (who also happens to own "Grande Fratello" aka Big Brother). "Beckham will be expected to turn out on one program at least – almost certainly Grande Fratello."

Now that'd be worth watching. How can I get Grande Fratello on my Tivo?

David is, of course, married to Victoria Beckham and together they have three children.
